In this July episode of The Ritual of Reading, I explore the quiet harmony between two deeply restorative practices: gardening and reading. One engages the hands, the other the mind—but both nourish the spirit and help us create balance in a busy world.
This reflection unfolds in three parts:
– How reading and gardening complement one another to soothe and center us
– The quiet courage of beginning—whether planting seeds or opening pages
– The beauty of solitary rituals that, in time, bloom outward toward others
This is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and tend your own inner garden.
